SPN questions that have been bugging me...

ash48and so I wondered if my knowledgeable flist could shed any light...
1. Was the demon in Croatoan (Duane Tanner) Meg? I admit to never thinking it was but I've come to realise that others think it is....?
2. When Ruby told Sam "You didn't need the feather to fly, you had it in you the whole time Dumbo", she's referring to Sam not needing the blood to be able to exorcise Demons yeah? So if that's the case why does Sam run out of "juice" when exorcising Demons? As in he wasn't able to exorcise Ruby after getting rid on Lilith. Is it because he is mentally exhausted? Spent his mental energies? Did he only think he needed blood in order to use his special skills. If so, does than mean he could actually exorcise demons now (and in S5) and doesn't because it would betray Dean's trust and just be too "darkside"? I'm thinking yes. But would he be able to without the connection to blood.... Hmmmm...
and finally (and this is because I am getting all wooby because I am in the middle of making a Sam vid and it's breaking me heart just a little...).
Why is Dean so hard on Sam with the choices he made after his death? I suppose that's rhetorical, because I know Dean has issues he's dealing with as well (and Sam choosing Ruby over himself cut to the core), but Dean copped out after Sam's death. He didn't want to live with the pain of grief. He couldn't live without Sam, so he bought him back.
Yet Sam had to suffer the terrible grief of losing Dean. He didn't have an out like Dean did. Now, sure Sam made some bad choices, but holy crap. I think Dean making a deal with a demon was a pretty bad choice as well. So yeah, cut your little bro some slack Dean. He was hurting mighty bad and the choices at the time helped him survive. Don't forget, you chose not to live with those feelings.....
(And that last one isn't really a question, just a rant. I know the way each of them have handled each others death is the whole point (well mostly) of S3 to S5. And I love it really! Just thinky thoughts...)

But she needed a trick to make him believe drinking the blood is just a necessity he is doing distracting from the fact that his choices opened up the door to his powers, not the blood. And the change within him is giving him demonic strength.
So he was tricked into his powers. Maybe the blood addiction shows that he is actually fighting his demonic side. Because if he would've chosen the dark side he would now have all the demonic power (without feeling bad about it) and blood addiction wouldn't be an issue anymore.
And he wouldn't have run out of "juice" for there would've been enough dark power without human consiousness. But then he wouldn't have wanted to kill Ruby anyway...
(I hope that makes sense, I alway find it hard to put my feelings about something into words.)

:D
